First off, you kind of sound like a tool. You're not speaking to Congress here, you're not in a cabal interview. You can speak like a normal person. There's a decent chance Gabe won't smite you for it.

Second, editing posts is lame. Editing hours later (once other people have read them, and possibly even responded) is doubly lame. Keep in mind, once you read a post, you're not going to go back and read it again. So if you make an edit an hour or so later, a lot of people will never see it. Just make a new post. And if they respond to something, which you later edit out, it just derails the whole conversation, and is open to all kinds of nuisance abuse.
